Welcome

Life can feel overwhelming at times, and reaching out for support can feel like a big step. Whether you are facing something specific or simply want to understand yourself more deeply, therapy offers a space to pause, reflect, and begin to make sense of what is going on for you.

My name is Letisia Vela, and I am a UKCP Trainee Therapist. I work with adults who are navigating a wide range of emotional and psychological experiences, from anxiety and low mood to identity, relationships, and life transitions. As a trainee therapist, I offer affordable, reduced rate therapy and aim to create a safe space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported.​

What I Offer

  • A confidential, supportive and compassionate therapeutic relationship

  • A grounded, relational approach based on Transactional Analysis

  • Support with anxiety, low mood, self-esteem, identity, and more

  • Online or in-person counselling in Willerby and Brough, Hull

  • A culturally sensitive service, with therapy also available in Spanish

  • Clinical experience supporting adults through placements with organisations including Valued Minds and Humberside Police

  • Ethical, professional practice in line with the UKCP Code of Ethics and Conduct

  • Affordable therapy, reflecting my current stage of training and supported by regular clinical supervision

My Approach

Transactional Analysis is a theory of personality, communication, and personal development. It offers a practical way of understanding how we relate to ourselves and others, and why we sometimes feel stuck in repeating patterns of thought, feeling, or behaviour.

Transactional Analysis looks at the "transactions" or interactions that we have with others and with ourselves. By bringing awareness to these everyday exchanges, therapy can help you understand where certain patterns come from, how they may have developed earlier in life, and how they might be affecting your relationships, work, or sense of self now.

Counselling and Therapy in Brough & Willerby

I offer in-person therapy and counselling in Brough and Willerby, East Yorkshire. Sessions take place in private and comfortable rooms, with availability varying slightly depending on the location of the room. Full details of the venue and available times are provided when arranging an appointment. I also offer online therapy for clients across the UK.​

You are welcome to get in touch

You do not need to feel ready.

Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, and it is completely okay if you are unsure or do not know where to begin. There is no right or wrong way. You can simply get in touch, and we can take things one step at a time.

I offer a free 30-minute telephone or video conversation, where we can gently explore what has brought you here and see how it feels to connect. There is no pressure to continue.

If it feels right for you, there is a simple way to get in touch below.

You don’t need a label for what you are feeling, just a curiosity about your inner world and a sense that something doesn’t quite feel right.
